President’s Welcome
Greetings to all members, friends and guests. It is an exciting time to be a part of the railroad community in Southern California. Recently passed ballot measures should help ensure that planning, design and implementation of a number of major projects should move forward without delay.
The Railway Club continues to be an excellent way to keep informed on some of the most dynamic projects in our community, which also happen to be some of the most significant in the nation. At any given meeting, in addition to the featured presentation, one can network with others who are working on nearly every rail project of note in the area.
We have recently been witness to tragedy with the Chatsworth train collision. As we pause to reflect on the tragic loss of life, and to honor the deceased, we should look to the future and each do our part to continually work towards improving safety of the systems we design, recognizing that passenger safety must always be a top priority.
I look forward to seeing all old friends and meeting new ones at our upcoming meetings.
Andy Sokol
President
